DescriptorImpl

Method Detail

getDisplayName

Human readable name of this kind of configurable object.
Should be overridden for most descriptors, if the display name is visible somehow.
As a fallback it uses Class.getSimpleName() on Descriptor.clazz, so for example MyThing from some.pkg.MyThing.DescriptorImpl.
Historically some implementations returned null as a way of hiding the descriptor from the UI,
but this is generally managed by an explicit method such as isEnabled or isApplicable.
